Monotype Printmaking

Join artist David Begley for an exciting day of monotype printmaking. A monotype is a unique, one of a kind, handmade print, created by drawing or painting an image onto a plate and transferring this to paper.

In this workshop participants will develop their own approach to this spontaneous, painterly medium, creating several monotype prints. We will explore monochrome mark-making exercises, work with wipe-out, direct painting, and tonking to make prints.
This workshop is suitable for professional artists as well as beginners.

Materials supplied. Please bring an apron!

David Begley works with water based non-toxic printmaking ink. His monotypes have been selected for the Woolwich Contemporary Print Fair, London, RHA, Dublin, Aberystwyth Printmakers, and Oriel Mostyn, Wales.
